I recently built and new system and have the following drives: ATA HD, IDE HD, DVD-RW, DVD-ROM & CD-RW. I have the ATA drive connected to the SATA on the Motherboard, The DVD-RW as Primary Master and DVD-ROM as Primary Slave and the IDE HD as Secondary Master. I was thinking of trying to hook up the CDRW because it has a faster CDRW speed than my DVDRW. Will it work as a Secondary Slave to my second hard drive?

The driver that came with my ASUS V9280 Video Suite card installed okay even though I got the "It has not been approved by XP" message, however when I upgraded the driver from the ASUS web site (I chose the most up to date version) my whole system crashed when I booted up the next time and once I removed the updated driver is was okay. Whats up with this? Is the V9280 compatable or not?

I just installed the driver from Nvidia and the system seems to be working okay. ASUS provided 4 drivers: WHQL, Enhanced, WDM and GART. The Nvidia takes care of the WHQL/Display but do I need to find alternatives for the other three? I understand the WDM is for video capture and the GART has something to do with verifing the AGP is preforming correctly. I appriciate any help you can give on this. I don't want to finish loading all my software and then have the system crash again due to video driver problems.
